Review: Muy util - Exelente opción para tener archivos protegidos y para usar en dispositivos desconocidos para evitar problemas de seguridad solo en Windows
Review: 71% defective rate (so far) - 71% (so far) of these drives were defective. I ordered 21 of these drives because our company is implementing DLP and therefore shutting off write access to our USB drives. Since these drives are hardware encrypted and require the user entering a password before viewing or accessing any of the data stored on them they are exempt from the USB write restriction. I ordered myself a test device at first - which worked - and then based on that I ordered 20 more for other users. I'm still waiting to hear back from a few people, but of the 13 I've heard back from so far (plus my original) an astonishing 10 have been defective. The way these drives work is they have two partitions - a read-only partition with an application on it that asks for the password and only upon entering the correct password the read/write partition is shown. On the defective drives the read-only partition is missing the application that asks for the password. After contacting Kanguru they sent a download to a repair tool, but that errors out on these drives and the only option is to work with the manufacturer to send them back to the factory for new ones. However, with a 70%+ failure rate I'm not overly confident that the replacements will work either + plus the hassle of having to collect them all, send them back and then test and distribute all the replacements. So far I'm several hours of headache in and I'm sure there will be many more to come. For a drive that is already priced 15x the price of a non-hardware encrypted version and targeted toward enterprises you'd think their QA processes would be a little more stringent. The physical drive itself is well made, heavy and does not appear cheap in any way - which is good considering the price you pay.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Solid build, durable, good for frequent use.
*by A***R on 28 April 2021*

Good physical security. Not easy to break or crack. Assuming user chooses a well conceived complex password, the AES 256 hardware assures strong logical security. USB 3.0 and 2.0 connectivity and 32GB storage provided easy portability of large data files. Would buy it again.
